you’d be surprised at how many doctors will tell you that schizophrenics shouldn’t masturbate, have sexual fantasies or write/draw erotica, let alone date or have actual sex, because it “distracts them from recovery”, as if schizophrenia is a two week course of antibiotics and not a lifelong neurotype and disability

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters , my number verified on the list is ( #515) ✅️

My full story 🙏💔

I'm Areej I was an English teacher and a creative writer at we are not numbers

before war and everything change after October 7. Also I'm a creative writer at we are not numbers.

Dear my kind donors!

Also I am a mother of three children. We have lived through the war for a year and a half, and we have lost everything we own. My husband is a man who did not work. Before the war, I did not have a breadwinner or any source of income. During the war I didn't give up to teach so I volunteered and had good chance to help some students to get engaged again with English in a very creative way.

Please Save those innocent kids from war 🥺‼️🙏🙏

We are in tents for almost two years because our home was destroyed‼️🥺

After our several evacuation from place to another.Now we don't have a house after it was destroyed by missiles. I now ask you to help me rebuild my house. And buy basics for the daily essentials for my children and I need money so that we can stand up again and start again.

This war wasn't easy at all it has taken many friends at work, students and some of my colleagues at the university. They are almost ten souls I won't never forget . Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.

My lovely students before war 🥺

Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:

🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.

😢 Loss: The absence of my students and my friends is really hurts.

💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.

Note to mention the other very expensive essential goods. I hope you will stand by me to get food

The crossings boarders are closed again these days and war return in Gaza.

The crossing through which food enters has been closed for more than 30 days. We have nothing to eat, and even if we do, the prices are exorbitant. Some of the prices listed are:

1 kg of meat = $100

1 chicken = 70$

1 kg of fish = 100$

1 bag of flour = $200

1 kg of cooking gas = $150

1 kg of sugar = $15

1 kg of eggplant = $20

1 kg of tomatoes = $10

1 kg of onions = $25

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line

Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

. $5 might not seem like much, but it could mean a meal, clean water, or a tiny bit of hope for my family.

. Can’t donate? Reblog this post to help us reach someone who can. Every share matters more than you know.

To help me and my family you can donate here or at least you can share this post to people who can support us in gaz

You can support my family here

i think it's fine to show up a little buzzed for work, but only if it's the kind of work that doesn't require the full use of your faculties. like if all you do all day is routine coronary angioplasties, or you're just performing the same route motions on a ballistics assembly line, fine! show up with a flask on your hip and take sips in your down time. but if you're running the griddle at waffle house you need to sober the fuck up and lock the fuck in.

sry to step back from the ai stuff and ask a more fundamental question but what do you mean about both art only mattering in the interplay betwwn work and reader and the stuff about how displaying something turns it into Art?

Like yeah ik both of those points are like super common things artists say but Ive only ever seen them deployed as like a way to shut down Outsiders trying to ask questions ive nerver understood what they actually mean

you see a toilet in a bathroom, you think "thats a toilet". you see a toilet on a plinth in an art gallery, you think "what's that doing there?" and then, if you are able to get past a knee-jerk rejection of 'THATS NOT ART WHATS IT DOING IN THE ART BUILDING', you think things like "what differentiates art objects from other objects? someone made this toilet, after all. it's mass produced, but prints can be mass produced, and they're still art. is a toilet that is being displayed different to one i am meant to use? what do i feel when i see a toilet randomly in the middle of a room while walking around an art gallery, that i don't feel when i see it in a bathroom when i'm going to take a piss?" & so on... the object has not changed, but your reaction to it has, and so it has become meaningfully different!

I mentioned this briefly in passing during my last serious Fallout kick, but it's striking to me how much Caesar resembles the median protagonist of an Edgar Rice Burroughs outing, as experienced by everyone in that guy's way. A learned man from "modern" civilization embarks on an expedition to parts unknown (with a couple plucky sidekicks along for the ride.) He gets captured by the natives, wins their respect by applying his knowledge of "modern" science and military strategy to their local conflicts, leads them to decisive victory over all their rivals, kicks ass to the top of the local political totem pole and reshapes society as he sees fit. He's David Innes, he's John Carter, He's Hank Morgan, He's Travis Morgan, He's Alan Quartermaine, he's the successor to any of the slew of stories about an American or European overtaking and surpassing the natives at their own game, in contexts historical, subtropical, subterranean or extraplanetary.

Where it splits off, of course, that it's aware of the fascistic-slash progressive-eugenicist undertones of that entire character archetype and the zeitgeist that produced it. Rather than following the script in lockstep his plucky sidekicks peel off one by one-Bill Calhoun out of moral horror at the overreach of his imperial project, Joshua Graham after flying too close to the sun in embracing a power fantasy that only has room for one true protagonist. A slightly more involved knowledge of military strategy specifically doesn't translate into enlightened philosopher-king status; the "new society" he's trying to create is a sham, informed more by his myopia and personal hangups than it is by anything that made Rome-as-it-actually-existed a successful polity. But this isn't the kind of genre where the Hero receives pushback on the sustainability of his power fantasy. And it isn't sustainable; he built a political machine that reproduces his initial successes at scale, but that's all that it can do. In the referent stories, it's not uncommon for the protagonist's forced departure to cause their grand ambitions to unravel in their absence (gotta make room for a sequel somehow! We're getting paid by the word.) In New Vegas that prospect is presented with a sigh of relief rather than framed as a tragic regression.

All of this feels fairly deliberate; gesturing at a space in pulp fiction even if it isn't dropping names directly. New Vegas, more than any other game in the franchise, is Doing Genre as part of its commentary; in addition to the usual B-movie sci-fi extravaganza it's a spaghetti western, it's a gangster flick, it's a war story. Burroughs and the Burroughs-adjacent are a corner of the pulp lineage that's severely fallen out of the zeitgeist compared to those first three, in no small part due to how they were cannibalized for parts by many of the more immediately recognizable science fiction and adventure subgenres that Fallout is pulling from. But Caesar's brand of power fantasy is still in there- you are what you eat. There's still room for his archetype. It's just that that archetype functions most intuitively as an antagonist once we're a century-removed from a zeitgeist that can spin amoral empire-building as a cracking good time for hot-blooded youths.
